  • 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin

  • 4 cups chicken broth (or vegetable broth for vegetarian option)
  • 1 cup shredded cooked chicken (rotisserie or pre-cooked)
  • 1 cup coconut milk (or almond milk for a lighter version)
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice (optional, for brightness)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped

Instructions

  1. Sauté the Aromatics:

    • Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.

  2. Add the Spices & Vegetables:

  3. Simmer the Soup:

    • Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil.
    • Reduce heat and let simmer for 15 minutes, until the vegetables are soft.
  4. Blend for Creaminess (Optional):

    • Use an immersion blender to blend part of the soup for a thicker texture, or keep it chunky.

  • For Extra Creaminess: Blend more of the soup or stir in a spoonful of Greek yogurt.
